.cftiaint and forfeiture of < property, and bar cheititro duftion ot this defcripiion of domdtics. Already we have fo many of them, that I fear the evil has taken its root. We ihould alfo reflect that it is not - our policy to drain our fitter ila'.ee too much of this kind of property. In for mationhaving becncom municated to me from a highly refpeclable fource, that an at tempt would in all probability . be made to land in this date, a huge number ofFrenrlj negroes, commonly called Brigan Is, ant 1 feeling it iny incfnpenlable duty to adopt meal ores to pn vent tiae introduction of a Banditti fo dangerous to the peace and tran quility of the ftate—l accord ingly ordered Major General back for,, to take fuch fteps as he fnould deem requilitc to afford the fcacoaft the neceffary protection, and to caufe the eariieft information to be afford ed of their approach—and every refiHance to be cxercifcd in cafe of their being landed by fort e. The cxpence may be confider abic, but no calculation can be formed of that which a landing of this let fb hoftile to order would have occafioned, whatever the amount may be the precau tion is well worth it, and I have promifed ic dia l be defrayed by the government, and I hope it will be provided for. I have the fatisfallion of hearing that ftvcral of our litter dates have been equally watchful to pre vent the landing of this Banditti on their fhores. The fecretary of date, in conformity with the inftru&ions pf the Legidature, entered into a contraCl with Meffrs. Seymour, Woolhopterand Scebbins, print ers of Savannah, for the print ing and binding of 2000 Vo iumes of Marbury and Craw ford’s Digcd of the Laws of the State. The contrail was prefented to me and met with my approval, from a conviction that the utmoft had been done ;o obtain the lowed terms, but notwithdanding the cod will ex ceed the appropriation of the laft feffion, and will require that provifion be made for irs dif charge. The 2coo Volumes were by contrail to be delivered at Louifvdlle, by the find of November next, and I have every reafon to believe it will be compiled with. Agreeably to a refolution of the Legidature at their fefiion iu June lad, 1 ift’ued an order dire ding that all claims fhculd be exhibited to the Executive Departnu nt, which the citizens Litis date have againft the Creek nation of Indians for property plundered. A confi derable number have in confe quence been collected, and I would recommend that a fche dole of the whole property con tained in the various claims be made out, with the value an nexed and held in rtadinefs to be demanded at the firil treaty, which may be held with the Creeks, conceiving ic the only _ J means lerr, by which we may obtain of them a fuitable con fideration in did barge thereof, and thereby cdbrd the iufierers jufticc. Thl noted' received at -the fale of the Indian goods in the year ISOI, having been fome time due, I directed thefn to be placed in the hands of die foli ciior general for recovery. I have not heard how far the building has progrefied at A thtns, the Seat of our Univer fity; but have every reafon to believe, from the preparations made Torre rime ao-o, that it is • , o 7 in a pleafingly progreffiye Late, and 1 fincerely hope that all op pofition, on account of the fitu aironto the completion of this great national object will ccafe, I and ti e fabric of fcience, rife j rapidly into view. j A ftatement of warrants drawn j upon the Trcalurv during the j political year will be laid before the Legi flam re. A lilt of Executive appoint ments made under the 9th lec tion of the 2d article of the con flitution, to fill vacancies which have happened during the recefs of the Lcgiflature, will lie fub mitted for vour information. j About to retire from the go vernment, I fhould be wanting in juftice to the officers in the feveral departments of (late, were I not to exprefs my entire approbation of their conduit during my continuance in office. Amidft plentiful -ersps, the bleffing of peace and the con tinued profpenty of every part of the dare, we have abundant reafon to be thankful to Almigh ty God—as a people we have been peculiatly favored, and it becomes us in our conduit and examples, to evince our grati tude to the Supreme Being, and to merit a continuance of his goodnefs. 1 hat profpenty and happi nefs may ever attend the date, is the fincere prayer of your fellow citizen and fervant, Josiah Tattnall, jun.
